Thursday. With the exception of a

principally of shooting revolvers loaded
with blank cartridges, and which succeeds
In filling the tent so full of sulphurous
fumes that the audience is well nigh
choked, the show is the same old rigma
role that FOrepaugh has trundled round
the country since the war. The same old
dun horses drawing the same old wagons
with the same old figures on the corners,
the same old pOt-bellied hook nosed
Forepaugh sitting in sinister silence in

ter was referred to the proper committee 1t
was decided that only eight-hour firms of

label Attempts to introduce charges against
members of the executive board were
promptly sat upon in several instances
The course of Powderly and the general
executive board in bringing the stock yards
strike at Chicago to a summary end in No
vember last. was approved by the general
assembly at the close of a four hours debate
In the afternoon. As soon as the question
was preached motion was made and carried
to go into executive session, which not only
precludes the press committee from making
its usual report but it is supposed to close
the mouth of every D'ember of the assembly.
IL was learned, however that the stock
yards trouble was very thoroughly discussed;
that Powderly justified his course at length,
and that T. b. Barry made vigorous reply
to the charges of duplicity in connection with
the affair." which are made against him in
some of the correspondence submitted from
Sylvester Gaunt and other members of the
order in Chicago When the motion to
adopt the report Of the committe e justifying
the general executive board was put, it was
adopted with but few dissents.
So little progress has been made with the
work of the body during the present week
that it is now thought that a final adjourn

The mayors friends-those who are
using him to further their own selfish
ends-claim that the ARGUS is untrue to
the democratic party in not supporting
his appointments, and especially that of
health commissioner. We cant see how
the question of politics can figure in that
appointment If anything, DIR. Plummer
is Il greater republican partisan than Dr.
Craig, and We venture the assertion that
the latter has voted for two democrat
where the former has one Besides the
men who asked for Craig retention are tie
very ones who supported and elected Mr..
Blanding, and it would be natural 10 sup
pose that he would desire to please his
friends especially when the public ser
vice would be benefited thereby. But
the ARGUS is not censuring the mayor for
removing DR. Craig although ii is open
ly admitted that be WAS peculiarly quail,
fed for the position and made most
efficient officer-but imply objects TO the
underhauded and questionable methods
used to accomplish that end The ARGUS
does not in any way desire to pose as
dictator or boss" Of the different dem
ocratic county and city officials elected
and,to all of which 1t gave hearty ard
unqualified support-the ARGUS has never
asked for single appointment, nor in
any manner attempted to influence such
appointments, with the exception of DR.
Craig. And then it was only choice
between republicans, and whether wor
thy and faithful officer should be removed
simply because he had offended a few
individuals in the conscientious discharge
of his duties. The ARGUS is satisfied
that it took the right position on that
Question. and it has nothing to regret 10
In IT'S course but it would never have
complained of the mayors action in that
regard if he had not adopted the meth>
DDS he did. When the ARGUS is con.
vineed that Mayor Banding pretends to
be running democratic administration,
it might try TO give him little support
on that ground, but it does not now fol-
low that because We do not sustain his
course that we are uulOyal to the party.
